Buy or Hold candidate since Jul 27, 2026 Loss -1.77%

The StepStone Group Inc. stock price gained 0.527% on the last trading day (Friday, 31st Jul 2026), rising from $43.63 to $43.86. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.90% from a day low at $42.80 to a day high of $44.04. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a 0.71% gain for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 429 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 1 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $46.09 million.

The stock lies the upper part of a very wide and falling trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break up at the top trend line at $43.93 will firstly indicate a slower falling rate, but may be the first sign of a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -24.58% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $25.57 and $33.13 at the end of this 3-month period. Do note, that if the stock price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.

STEP Signals & Forecast

Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The StepStone Group Inc. stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $43.28 and $43.14. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Friday, June 26, 2026, and so far it has risen 10.93%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal.

This stock has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the stock moved $1.24 between high and low, or 2.90%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 3.68%.

Trading Expectations (STEP) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 3rd

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 3rd we expect StepStone Group Inc. to open at $43.57, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $42.81 and $44.91, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$2.11 (+/-4.92%) up or down from last closing price. If StepStone Group Inc. takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.92% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $43.95 (0.21%) than the support at $43.63 (0.52%), our systems don't find the trading risk/reward intra-day attractive and any bets should be held until the stock is closer to the support level.
